Journeys into the West: Guardians and En Garde!

Continuing with our preview materials, the patrons of Journeys to the West have finished generating items and spells, and now we’re heading full sail toward playtesting—presuming the winds of creativity and the authors’ muses are generous! In the meantime, patrons are looking over material, plus they’re looking for mechanical or grammatical concerns (and hoping to pick up a bit of bling while they’re at it).

Speaking of bling, here’s a fine piece of headgear for performers and duelists. Take a look at two more items that might keep the ship busy and headed on a course away from Barsella for now! Here’s hoping you find a fun use for it in your campaign!

Swashing Plumage

The swashing plumage, a colorful bouquet of tropical hat feathers, can be affixed to a hat band with a small pin at its base.

Due to its ostentatious appearance, the swashing plumage can distract enemies, thus granting a +5 bonus to Acrobatics checks to avoid attacks of opportunity and Bluff checks to perform a Feint maneuver.

Additionally, once per day, the wearer may tip the affixed hat, granting the wearer the ability to perform a Feint maneuver as an immediate action.
